Separate mailings: You may receive your newly-issued U.S. passport book and/or card and your citizenship evidence in two separate mailings. If you are applying for both a U.S. passport book and passport card, you may receive three separate mailings; one with your returned evidence, one with your newly-issued passport book, and one with your newly-issued passport card. Passport numbers: Each newly issued passport book or card will have a different passport number than your previous one. "In care of": If you do not live at the address listed in the "mailing address" section of this application, put the name of the person who does and mark it "In Care Of" in item # 8 on page 1 of 2.

NOTE: The U.S. Department of State will not mail a U.S. passport to a private address outside the United States or Canada. The U.S. passport card is not valid for international air travel. Unlike the U.S. passport book, the U.S. passport card is valid only for entry at land border crossings and sea ports of entry when traveling from Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Bermuda. The maximum number of letters provided for your given name (first and middle) on the U.S. passport card is 24 characters. If both your given names are more than 24 characters, you must shorten one of your given names you list on item #1 on page 1 of 2. Both the passport book and card are U.S. passports. They reflect the bearer's identity and nationality, and they are subject to existing passport laws and regulations. U.S. passports are only issued to U.S. citizens or non-citizen U.S. nationals. The information you provide regarding your lost or stolen U.S. passport book or card will be placed into our Consular Lost or Stolen Passport System. This system is designed to prevent the misuse of your lost or stolen U.S. passport book or card. Anyone using the passport book or card that was reported lost or stolen may be detained upon entry into the United States. If you find the U.S. passport book or card that was reported lost or stolen, report it as found, and submit it for cancellation. It has been invalidated. You cannot use that passport book or card for travel. A United States citizen or non-citizen national may not normally have more than one valid or potentially valid U.S. passport book or more than one valid or potentially valid U.S. passport card at a time. Therefore, when a valid or potentially valid U.S. passport book or card cannot be presented with a new application, you must submit a Form DS-64, Statement Regarding a Lost or Stolen U.S. Passport. Your statement must detail why the previous U.S. passport book or card cannot be presented.
